• Following Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension, Noah Centineo canceled his Disney+ subscription, sharing a screenshot on Instagram.
  • Fans noticed that Noah’s subscription would still be active for another year.
  • The question begs: Did Noah purchase a year-long subscription just to cancel it?

Jimmy Kimmel returns to late night on Tuesday after a week off the air, and celebs everywhere are enjoying the win. That is, except for Noah Centineo, who has found himself in a bit of hot water after calling on his subscribers to cancel their Disney+ subscriptions in solidarity with the talk show host.

After Jimmy was suspended last week, many celebrities expressed their outrage and support, with some—like Tatiana Maslany and Noah—encouraging fans to boycott Disney and unsubscribe from any and all Disney-owned streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+. Noah even shared proof of his own canceled Disney+ subscription, on his Instagram Story, writing, “Save money today.”

It’s a kind gesture...but also one that was immediately dragged by fans online, who couldn’t help but notice that—despite canceling his subscription—the screenshot showed he would still have access to Disney+ for almost a full year—until September 18, 2026. Some have even speculated that Noah bought a year-long subscription just to cancel it in a show of support. As one pop-culture Twitter account put it, “Noah Centineo buys 1 year subscription of Disney+ just to cancel it right after.”

But while fans were quick to call out Noah’s actions as performative, I’m not so convinced, and here’s why. Noah posted his Instagram Story on September 19, and it was still up the following day, when I managed to snag a screenshot, which suggests that he canceled his Disney+ on September 19.

So wouldn’t he have access to the streaming service until September 19, 2026, instead of September 18, as written in the screenshot? And if he did, in fact, cancel his subscription on the 19th instead of the 18th, then isn’t it possible that Noah had an annual subscription with auto-renew, which just so happens to have been renewed the day before he canceled it?

I’ll let you be the judge.
